About Fulhadhoo water aerodrome

Fulhadhoo Seaplane Base (VR-FLH) serves Fulhadhoo in Baa Atoll, with seaplane services operated by Island Aviation Services Limited. The aerodrome has 2 platforms for passenger transfer. It lies about 101 km (55 nm) from Malé, roughly 40 minutes by seaplane.

Like all water aerodromes in the Maldives, operations are daytime VFR only, and conditions on the water — wind, sea state, and tide — decide whether a departure or arrival is comfortable, marginal, or off. Seavion tracks wind and sea state live, refreshed every 15 minutes from MMS, METAR, and marine forecast sources, with modelled tide levels alongside.

Seaplane travel here follows the Maldives' two monsoon seasons. The northeast monsoon (iruvai, roughly December to April) generally brings drier, calmer weather, while the southwest monsoon (hulhangu, roughly May to November) tends to be wetter with stronger winds. Conditions vary day to day.
